now nothing here is a totally new and radical concept water coolers aren't new
pre-filled water coolers aren't new and ones from Cooler Master aren't even new
but they're still pretty proud of the nepton 240m they're all like yeah it's
got high quality included fans it's got a completely Cooler Master designed and
manufactured pump with great quality we put a 5year warranty on it and all that
stuff so let's find out then if it's as
good as it sounds on paper by the way speaking of things that sound our
momentum in your earphone review is coming soon so make sure you're

the surface there's not much to differentiate nepton 240m from other
premium dual 120 mm fan liquid coolers
the CPU block and pump combo unit features a flat machined copper base
plate on the bottom with a white LED lit Cooler Master logo on top and two side
mounted swivel fittings that connect to the pre-attached fluorinated ethylene
propylene tubing that appears to be closer to 38 in internal diameter than
a/4 in but manages this wider flow path
without any extra susceptibility to kinking very nice the radiator it's
connected to is a fairly standard aluminum finned 27 mm thick dual 120 mm
air with what I would describe as moderate fin density so for the quiet
freaks out there it should be suitable for use with low RPM fans as long as
they deliver High static pressure even at low RPM which leads us to the fans
these things are actually a fantastic upgrade over the fans that Cooler Master
used to buy bundle with their neptun coolers they run it anywhere from 800 to
2400 RPM they were extremely quiet at
1100 RPM the setting that we standardize on for our performance testing and on
top of having Square frames which allows them to seal better against the radiator
for improved static pressure they have this included rubber gasket in the box
that further reduces vibration and air leakage I'd say my only complaint about
their new silencio fans is that you don't seem to be able to buy them
Standalone you can only get them with the cooler cuz they're pretty darn good
installation was a breeze on LGA 2011 the pump is efficient enough to be
powered by a fan header on your motherboard which makes life a little bit easier and the mounting hardware is
both solid you
know and easy to use so if I had to make
one criticism here I guess it would be that the tubing runs felt a little bit
long for me but users with larger cases
may be very thankful that the tubing is a a little bit on the longer side so
your mileage may vary which leads us to
Performance yes performance was actually very good the neptun 240m is competitive
with pretty much anything else on the playing field including even Swift tax
h220x expandable aiio but at a lower
price and with more flexible mounting options like Swift tax one because the
pump and Reservoir are on the radiator can only be mounted like this way and
this way only whereas the nepon kind of be positioned however you want it's just
it comes inherently with the pump being on the CPU and not having a reservoir it
should be noted though that it does all this without the expandability that
Swift Tech solution affords where you can start throwing in graphics card
blocks and stuff like that one thing of note here is that upgrading to Noctua
n12 fans does as it always seems to
improve the performance but not so
dramatically this time that we'd consider them a necessary upgrade for
potential buyers the ones in the Box are a very solid option with nice sleeved
four pin pwm connectors and all that good stuff so overall the neptun 240m is
a winner which is a relief for me because we've been running ads for it on
our videos for a little while now and it's always refreshing to know that the
stuff we're advertising even if we're not specifically endorsing it also
happens to kick butt I mean I hate it when you guys buy stuff that isn't as
good as it could possibly be speaking of things we advertise that kick butt man
that was a great segue it's BlizzCon time again and Intel has some pretty
awesome stuff going on in there their
Booth is located near the Hearthstone stage and they're going to be showcasing
the latest and greatest Tech from Intel so you guys might remember the last year
Hearthstone with touch launched at BlizzCon and Intel was showing off
tablets with Hearthstone touch running so that's probably also going to be
there it's a pretty safe beted especially with their new corm processors available they're going to of
course have gaming rigs with an emphasis
on like you know high res gaming high performance gaming and they just
launched Haswell e back around the PS prime time frame so they're going to
have like six core and eight core gaming rigs going on up in there with ddr4
they've got a screen app where attendees can come by and take pictures in front
of it they're going to have twitch streamers streaming at their Booth this
is something that they've done before it's pretty darn cool if you want to meet some of your you know favorite
twitch personalities that happen to be there they're going to be offering some deals through New Egg on an nus Rog
laptop the Lenovo y50 4K gaming laptop
and the Lenovo Horizon 2
27in Allin one so the promo codes are
available in the Intel BlizzCon thread on the form that's Linked In the video
description and the codes expire December 31st so you don't actually have
to like buy anything this second you could be a present for the holiday
season or it could even be something to spend like if your parents and relatives
love you a lot more than mine ever did something to spend your Christmas money
on after the Christmas season so guys I
think that pretty much wraps it up like this video if you liked it dislike it if you disliked it leave a comment if your
feelings are more complicated than this check the link in the video description
